Most of a child's faith development happens within the day to day life of their family. We want to provide experiences and resources for families to grow together in their faith, and to use in their own home. Below you will find a few of the opportunities that happen throughout the year. For questions about our Faith Formation ministries contact the church office.
Elementary Youth Group
The Elementary Youth Group meets once a month for lunch, activities, and Faith Formation. Friends and guests are always welcome to join us.
Harrisburg Area Confirmation Camp
Once a a summer we join with other congregations from around the Synod for a week at Camp Nawakwa. Confirmation Camp is for youth 6th grade through 11th grade. We spend the week exploring scripture, the Small Catechism, worshipping, and having fun at camp. For more information check out their website at https://harrisburgconfirmationcamp.org/
Middle/High Youth Group
The Middle/High Youth group gathers at least once a month for team building, devotions, games, and faith formation activities. Guests are always welcome for these events.
Synod Youth Events
It is great for youth to experience the larger church as well as their own congregation. The youth of Trindle Spring Lutheran regularly participate in synodical events like "Winterfest" for High School youth, and "Alive" for the Middle School youth.

Harrisburg Area Confirmation Camp 2025
Reflection shared by TSLC member, Carly Gordon:
"Something that really touched me was that you're around so many people that genuinely care for you and want to be there for you. When people found out my sister was in the hospital, it was amazing seeing how many people wanted to know how I was doing. I don't think a lot of people realized how much that meant to me, because a lot of times I feel like I am overlooked. It was so amazing how my church and faith community at camp came together and supported ME when I was going through a hard time. I'll be forever grateful for that."
